The ABC’s of Whole Foods

W – is for the WEALTH of vitamins and minerals which are present in every whole food. Vegetables, fruits, seeds, grains, and legumes belong in this category. If you can see that your food stays close to its original form and not overly processed (i.e. refined, powdered, sweetened, dehydrated, or canned), then that is a whole food.

H – is for HEALTH, the main reason why people eat whole foods. Its components such as antioxidants, plant protein, good fats, fiber, and phytochemicals are naturally preserved. Your body will benefit more from eating whole foods since it contains the much needed substances which can help prevent and heal various illnesses and physical conditions.

O – is for ORGANIC, one of the most ideal types of whole foods. Think about all the preservatives, chemical sprays, flavor enhancers, and additives which can be found in our everyday meals. Food processing has transformed the common food into packages of calories, oils, fats, sugars, and sodium substances which easily pile up and bring unpleasant effects in our bodies. These things, as much as possible, can be avoided by eating whole foods instead.

L – is for LOCAL. It is recommended that you buy whole foods in your local market, since the nutrients tend to deteriorate in time. To fully absorb its benefits, try to find newly harvested farm produce or better yet, start growing some in your own backyard.

E – is for ENERGY. When you consume whole foods, you will feel so much better. Since your body is no longer working hard to break down chemical additives and remove toxins, it can now function more properly. If you’re looking for convenience, you could try making your own snacks from dried fruits and nuts, or your own blended fruit shake.

By consuming whole foods as the main part of your diet, you are doing your body a favor. Switch to whole foods today!
